Default March pickups

Bob Feller game used 2nd no-hitter ball dated 4/30/46 at NYY

Okay, I'm a day early here. Hopefully no one will begrudge me starting this thread anyway...

Rapid Robert always said that in spite of the public perception that his Opening Day no-hitter in Chicago in 1940 was his finest moment, he didn't carry the same sentiment. Instead, his tour-de-force was actually his 2nd no-hitter in 1946 vs. the NY Yankees. He told me that the strength of the Yankees batting lineup led by Joe DiMaggio made this one significant and special. The Indians prevailed 1-0 over the Bronx Bombers.

The Harridge AL game used ball is signed in vintage fountain pen by Feller and his batterymate, catcher Frank Hayes. The score and date are noted on another panel and the ball is inscribed to some lucky fan named Billy Shapiro.

A cool pickup for my no-hitter collection.

Awesome ball Scott! I would love to see your museum. In keeping with a Bob Feller theme. I picked these advertising pieces up in the last Legendary auction. I said I wouldn't bid in that auction but my judgment was impaired by the beating I took in the Hunt auction. Nonetheless I couldn't resist as I love Feller and oversized advertising display items. The fact that Rapid Robert hadn't managed to autograph it surprised me as well

Nice ball Scott. I was almost gonna bid on that. But I started after the May 30th , 1935 Phillies vs Braves ball. That day was Babe Ruth's last game ever. He played in the first game of a double header and this ball was from the second game. I put in a decent bid but I was not 100% sure on the ball. MEARS listed it as 5/30/1935 but there was no date on the ball. There was a score (9-3) which was correct. There was also the starting lineups which weren't exactly correct and the batteries which were half right so I was having trouble going higher on it.

I love those Feller advertising displays. My first thought after seeing them was, "where's his autograph?"

While not vintage, I won my first item from Hunts this past week. It was the Pride of the Pirates award given to former player and announcer Steve Blass in 2002. Thought it was interesting and different and feel like I got it pretty cheap.
Lot included an empty wine bottle from the occasion, and 2 pictures of Steve receiving the award.

Picked up this M101-2 Sporting News supplement of the 1910 Philadelphia Athletics in February but I'm real happy that a pink stain that covered a couple of the players on the right side of the top row came off when I soaked it this morning

Finally pulled the trigger on a Joe DiMaggio old timer's game bat that I have been watching for a while. It looks awesome on my wall, especially when I put it next to my DiMaggio coach's bat from '68!

Thanks all, I am not a glove collector but I thought to myself, what are the chances of getting a glove this old from a HOF'er with this strong record of provenance. I will have to sell some things off to afford the glove but we do what we have to do.

The company l work for is located in an old beer distribution building. While cleaning above a cooler l found several neat items. There were several working beer signs (Pfieffer and Berghoff) as well as this Falsaff sign advertising the CBS game of the week featuring Dizzy Dean and Pee Wee Reese. It measure 2.5 feet by 2 feet and l have narrowed the date to 1960 to 1965. It is not in great shape but it cost me nothing. Not sure how to display it other to hang it in my shed.

Pee Wee: It's time for a Falstaff, Diz.

Dizzy: You betcha, Pee Wee

Love the Falstaff/CBS sign! As a kid, I loved watching and listening to PeeWee and Dizzy call those games. Their memorable intros to the Falstaff commercials continue to have me thinking of Falstaff beer, today.

Trying to tone the buying down, but I couldn't pass up a rare opp'ty to acquire this Henry Kirke Bush-Brown original statue, circa 1880s. A few repros of this statue have circulated, and go for big bucks in their own right.

This original was a rare ebay "find"....

Has anyone seen this game and know why the block of wood is on it? Should I take it off or does it serve a purpose? Thanks D.

It's supposed to be there. It should rotate freely, deflecting the ball out of or back into play in pinball fashion.
An alternate (presumably slightly later) version of the game, titled The Pitcher's Battle, replaced the solid block with a wooden cross.

This is mine below, as you can see it is very similar to yours, yours appears to be a batter and as you can see mine is a pitcher (Tommy Bridges). Is your a generic player or was it endorsed by someone? I even have the original box that it came with unbelievably.

Your is a very nice piece and congrats on it!

We answered Dynarl in a hurry, and included one large error in doing so, so we're adding to and amending our previous post:

We wish we could tell you more about both The Professional Player and The Pitcher's Battle, but there's a fair amount of mystery
surrounding both games and unfortunately we don't own a example of either of them.

The Pitcher's Battle is a fairly tough acquisition itself, but The Professional Player probably qualifies as "rare"
-- we haven't seen an example offered for sale or at auction in almost ten years.

The mystery is how two virtually identical games are credited to two different names, and which one came first.
Guetschoff filed an application for a design patent (different than what most people think of, which is a "utility patent")
in late 1934 and was granted the patent 30 July 1935 (the design is pretty much exactly what you have with The Professional Player).
However, the back of the Guetschoff game is stamped only "pat. appld. for," while it's Kollmorgen's The Pitcher's Battle
that sports the 30 July 1935 patent date on its playing board. Thanks for the view of the game's backside, by the way,
which gives us info we didn't have previously.

Kollmorgen's nephew (so he claimed, and we believe he was being honest) showed up on our Baseball Games forum
several years ago offering just a few insights on the game -- supposedly thousands were sold at the J L Hudson department store
in Detroit, and Kollmorgen allegedly had other major league players besides Bridges lined up to endorse the game in the late 1930s,
but some delays and the outbreak of WWII killed further production. Kollmorgen was still alive when his nephew posted at our forum,
but was in no mental state to answer questions we wished relayed to him, and he died shortly thereafter.

We have a photo of the directions for The Pitcher's Battle, which are presumably identical for The Professional Player.
The game uses one large marble (presumably a "shooter") and nine standard marbles. We must correct ourselves
regarding the purpose of the square block on the Guetschoff game and the wooden cross on the Kollmorgen game --
both rotate, not to put the ball in or out of play, but merely to indicate where the baserunners are.

Picked this up for $4.00. It arrived yesterday and looks much much better than the photo. It measures 17 X 11. Can't believe a 1934 poster with Ruth, Gehrig, Grove, and Alexander would go that cheap.

There were no keywords to search on - unless you were looking in that newspaper category, you would never see this item.

Nice pick-up.

Although the auction was late February, I received the ring in early March.

It's a 1927 Yankee player ring, belonging to Benny Bengough.

I won it at the Heritage auction.

I guess this belongs in the new championship ring section. In case you have not been to the new section, please take a look at it.

Very neat Bob. What is it? A charm? How big is it? Looks almost like a printing block.

It is about the size of a half dollar and it is similar to the tokens that they made for lifetime or season passes
